Bug Description

[Impact]
Mesa 12.0.5 is now available as a point release in the stable branch. Mesa has MRE for these.

The release contains multiple fixes amongst which:
The nouveau vdpau driver performance has been restored. The wayland-egl
module no longer crashes if the user calls eglDestroySurface and
wl_egl_window_destroy in the "wrong" order. libEGL correctly advertises
the EGL platforms available. Multiple fd leaks were addressed, which
could prevent rmmod of devices such as the DisplayLink drivers. Radeonsi
has gained noticeable performance by disabling ReZ. Interop between third
party OpenCL implementations and mesa's libGL/libEGL is back online...
and many more.

I don't see any test results posted here. But I've heard elsewhere that there are some GPU hangs with radeon which is why 12.0.6 is about to be released.

There's not enough time to wait for weeks, 16.04.2 will be released soon (if not a week from now as scheduled) and this is needed there. And the packages have been on the SRU queue for some time now but no-one dared to ack them.

Everything seems to work on my Intel Broadwell laptop and a desktop with Radeon 7750 graphics card. With the former I've mostly run normal desktop stuff, heavy WebGL in Firefox + Chromium and some more basic OpenGL apps from the archives. With the latter I've run a variety of Steam games like Gone Home, Team Fortress 2, Bioshock: Infinite, Civilization V.
